I'm just hoping Franky B's doesn't end up in a food fight with their supplier. That would be the worst way to resolve this dispute!

Hmm, I don't know. Conciliation might be worth a shot - it could help the two parties come to an agreement without a third-party decision. But mediation or adjudication are probably safer bets.

I believe adjudication might be quicker, but it's more formal and less flexible than mediation or conciliation.

Conciliation could also work, it's similar to mediation but with more guidance from the third party.

I agree with Bernadine, mediation is a more collaborative approach.

Definitely not litigation! That would just make things worse and more expensive. Mediation or adjudication are the way to go here.

Adjudication seems like the way to go. A third-party expert making a binding decision sounds exactly like what Franky B's needs to resolve this conflict.

I think mediation would be the best option for Franky B's. It allows them to have a third-party expert make a binding decision without the hassle of going to court.
